Today three things have happened that serve to remind me that we get what we ask for when it comes to spam.
David Hinson - has written about how his email communication is clogged to the extent that he may give up using it.
Spoofing Madness - A client and I have been inundated with spoofing bounces the likes of which we’ve never seen. He’s about 12 hours ahead of me from a start view point but I’m running at around 300 a day.
So with all this spam happening … why are we receiving this unwanted mail?
Because we asked for it.
In all instances we’ve plastered websites, forums and more saying click here and send me an email … and we’ve been receiving just what we asked for.
- I’m working with my client to address his issue.
- Mine I’m not fussed about as it’s part of my spam activity tracking process.
- David … I can’t answer for but there are some pointers as to why on his blog.
